    Artist History
    From flames arise three creatures know as "the Plague" formed in 1998 by Macgill & Jonah as a two piece, guitar and drums, wrote some songs that were to our likin'and decided to search for a bass player. Jonah just happened to know a kid named Mike Bell, so on a mission he went. After endless days of climbing mountains and lookin high and low he came across mike. He asked Mike, "HEY MAN, do you wanna join are band. It your chance to destroy Rock-N-Roll!" Hell yeah! he said, so we were off to do what we were put on this place for. Not to get rich, not to get famous, but to DESTROY! So off we went writing song after song for a couple months. We played one show with mike and then it all fell apart. Things just were not going as planned so we had to get rid of Mike. Macgill & Jonah kept playing writing more songs & decided it's time to find a bass player. Jonah just happened to know a kid that played guitar & it was MCGEE from their former band called Koatic Youth. The names kind of corny but hey we were like 13 year olds at the time. Anyways mcgee ripped on guitar like know one we had ever heard so, we asked he if he would mind playing the bass for us. He aslo said hell yeah so not we were set. We taught mcgee all of are songs in a couple weeks and the Plague was ready to move on. We wrote a couple of songs with mcgee and went and recored our self titled disc on the week between chritmas & new years of 1999. It had eleven tracks & was about 20 min. long. We were ready to move on and start playing shows. We played a couple shows in our home town and the kids seemed to really dig us so we thought we should see what the kids in some other town thought. They dug us too. We went back home after them shows and were like lets start to write a new disc. About 2 months later in november of 2000 we had a successful demo to put out. It had 8 songs on it. we played out some more around PA then in the late winter of 2001 we decided to try and go on our first tour. So we started to book a tour for summer of 2001. After long days on a computer month after month with a friend Sean Fink who played in the band Indianna. we had a tour booked. We did are tour and gained a good fan base from PA as far west as Oklahoma and as far south as Florida. When we got back from our adventure cross country, we wasted no time at all. We got right back to writing more songs. About 5 months later in December of 2001 we entered the studio once again. This time to lay down the sound that we have wanted all along right from the start. The new 8 song e.p. entitled "only time is at stake" has a sound you will never forget. Look for us to be in your town very soon. we will be playing all over New England states and the entire east coast during 2002. We are looking for a lable currently to release our new e.p. We are also always looking for zines to be in, comps. to be on, and venus so we can destroy your mind.
